It was stormy today, the downpour cascaded for hours and nearly flooded the streets. I don't know if it's just me, but every time there's a heavy storm like this, my internet connection gets really flaky. It lags a lot, and sometimes I even get 404 errors. Especially on Wi-Fi, I often have to reboot the router multiple times throughout the weather. I've studied about this electromagnetic spectrum thingy lately, and I wonder if this has something to do with the storm itself. Maybe the heavy rain or intense electrical activity in the clouds is interfering with the signal? After all, even visible light is an electromagnetic wave, so different frequencies can definitely affect each other. Maybe it was like the storm hijacked my WiFi?

I’m no expert but I think you might be right.
